In this episode of Chopped Sweets season 2, titled "Sweet Cheesy Bliss," four pastry chefs compete for a chance to win $10,000. The contestants are challenged to create three dessert courses that incorporate various cheese-inspired ingredients, from blue cheese to goat cheese to ricotta.
The first round begins, and the chefs have just 20 minutes to create a dessert using blue cheese as the star ingredient. The judges are looking for creativity, presentation, and taste. The chefs scramble to create their dishes, using everything from nuts to berries to honey to offset the funkiness of the cheese. One chef decides to make a blue cheese icing for their cake, while another opts to create a blue cheese ice cream. The judges taste all four dishes and eliminate one chef from the competition.
Round two sees the remaining three chefs tasked with creating a dessert using goat cheese as the key ingredient. This round lasts 30 minutes, and the chefs have a bit more time to craft their dishes. One chef decides to make a savory-sweet pairing with goat cheese and caramel, while another opts for a goat cheese mousse with a berry compote. The dishes are all impressive, but one chef falls short and is eliminated from the competition.
The final round sees the remaining two chefs tasked with creating a grand dessert using ricotta cheese as the main ingredient. This is a 45-minute round, and the chefs have the most time yet to create their masterpieces. One chef decides to make a ricotta-filled cannoli, while the other goes for a creamy ricotta cheesecake. Both dishes are delights to behold, but only one chef can be crowned the winner of this sweet cheese-themed challenge.
The judges taste both dishes and deliberate on which chef showed the most creativity, skill, and flavor. After much discussion, they make their decision and crown the winner. The victorious chef takes home $10,000 and the bragging rights of being the winner of this "Sweet Cheesy Bliss" episode of Chopped Sweets.
